Flemington – Race 2 11.30am AEDT

No. 5 Mamzelle Tess

Mamzelle Tess was not beaten far in either the Blazer Stakes or the Tesio Stakes and this is a genuine drop in class. It has been a long time between race wins, but she is clearly racing in career best form and this is the weakest race that she has contested this campaign. This is her chance to return to winning form.

Flemington – Race 4 12.40pm AEDT

No. 8 Masculino

Masculino has been extremely consistent during his racing career to date and he finished his most recent campaign with two wins and two seconds in his last four starts. This is a step-up in class, but he is a horse with upside that does run well fresh and he is well and truly over the odds at his current price of $11.

No. 10 Shiraaoh

Shiraaoh will make his Australian racing debut after starting his racing career in the United Kingdom. He definitely wasn’t elite, but he does have form around some decent horses and he doesn’t meet the strongest field of stayers in this contest. Kerrin McEvoy could prove to be the difference and there are few better riders of stayers in this country.

No. 1 Stampede

Stampede returned to his best form with an impressive victory at Royal Randwick on The Everest Day and he still has the scope to improve on that performance. Stephen Baster will be able to take him straight to the front in the early stages and the Gai Waterhouse/Adrian Bott stable continues to go well in Melbourne.
